[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=takoma]Those of you who say it is necessary to accept as literal truth the divinity of Christ, the Resurrection, the Virgin Birth, etc, can you tell me what you call someone who does not believe those things, but accepts and follows the teachings of Christ?[/quote]

The teaching of Christ is that nobody gets to the father except through him.  Do you accept it? And why?[/quote]

Different poster.  I accept that, but from a more metaphysical viewpoint .  No one can reach that perfect good unless they become Christ-Like.  Jesus Christ was our perfect example of unconditional love, compassion, kindness and ultimately, sacrifice.  God in human form.    How many of us would die for someone who didn't even like us?  Someone who was undeserving?  How many could forgive the way Jesus did?

I believe in Jesus as the Christ.  I believe he came to earth to show us the way to perfect love.  That makes me a Christian.  However, I believe there are many, many paths to that same end.  To God - the loving source of all that is good.[/quote]

Nope. Nice try . Just admit you don't believe Christs teaching that he is the only begotten son of God who is the truth , the way and the life and that no man gets to the father except THROUGH him.

Don't be afraid to call him a loonatic if you do not accept that. He respects you more than the"Luke warm" spinners and word twisters.[/quote]

How do you know that Christ respects someone who calls him a lunatic more than he respects spinners and word twisters?[/quote]
